Can We Train Snake Discovery's Macaw to FLY?
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 06. 2022
- We teamed up with Emily and Ed from @SnakeDiscovery and their rescue blue and gold macaw, Cheyenne, to see if we could train Cheyenne to fly from a surface other than a person (who needed to give encouragement to 'send' her to fly) and see if we couldn't convince her to take a flight all by herself! Could we do it?! Watch to find out!

Next task: flight-train Rex.
I heard Rex is sadly a confirmed untrainable bird
That honestly sounds like one of the most terrifying things I could imagine. A flying alligator, not only does it sound like a comic book. Bridges seems like something that just shouldn’t happen because it would be so terrifying. And Rex is probably the cutest alligator I’ve seen
Imagine an alligator flying towards you at full speed 😰
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 YESSS! Lol
Omg, imagine her death rolling while flying! 😂🤣😱
4:54 I love how while Emily's petting Cheyenne, Cheyenne's grooming Emily
Ahh, I love Snake Discovery!! So excited to see you two collaborating!
"Collaborating?" No, they're marketing, and this sort of thing, which they've been doing far too often, is way beyond a major annoyance. Find the other bird videos that are getting the most views, and then "collaborate" with them to market to an even wider audience.
@@siberianhusky5874 dude Cheyenne needed the training so what's the harm in this video?
@@mischiefthedegenerateratto7464 Technically, every pet bird "needs" training. That's not what this is.
@@siberianhusky5874 she was literally getting trained and they changed her diet, you could also argue that by being on the bird tricks channel itself you are watching glorified advertisements (like how they always bring up their own brand of food and toys for example even with people who aren't CZcamsrs) so if you don't like that then leave, you also didn't seem to mention how they did a video with Mikey the Macaw and friends which could also be seen as marketing for the channel but oh no you go after snake discovery? Both channels I mentioned as well got the same treatment and education as a non CZcamsr/ non quote unquote "famous person" so what's your issue? It shouldn't matter what's being done at the end of the day as long as the bird is being cared for properly.
@@siberianhusky5874 wow no response? Why is it whenever someone sounds like they have a decent argument they shut up?
This was TOTALLY awesome! 🙌🙌🙌
OMG IS IT YOUU
Ants and Macaw collab? 👀👀👀😳😳😳
Hmm
Ants Canada, BirdTricks, and Snake Discovery collab sometime?? That'd be beyond interesting.
The master of ants himself
Yes. I have wanted to see you Help Cheyenne for years! I am so happy to see you collab
Anyway I absolutely love seeing my sweater design being used on Cheyenne. That's still pretty cool. And yes my birds wear my sweater designs
Excellent. And you?
Cheyenne reminds me of my dog: she has no problem doing what she's being asked to do but is just stubborn about trying to do it the first few times. Once you get past those few times they pick up on stuff very fast though. Only difference is my dog will start doing other things i have taught her in an attempt to get a treat the "easy way" vs Cheyenne just chilling on the counter. (the tricks she tries are not always physically easy compared to what I want her to do)
It’s cute how she just sits there with Dave like “I’m watching you.”
I am a dog trainer who desperately wants a parrot, and I absolutely LOVE watching your videos. It's fascinating to get to see the overlaps and differences in training a dog vs a parrot. Love how you explain the concept of pressure- and the absolute importance of finding the right pressure level and not over-doing it- to help push an animal into a behavior you want from them. I've been watching Snake Discovery build their zoo, too, so it's cool to get to see a parrot be trained that I've seen in other contexts ❤️❤️
Knowing that she took that flight from the countertop (already watched SD's video) makes watching this even more fun. Go! GO GO! hahahaha she is such a cool bird :D
Beat collab everr!!! Omg training a plucker bird is such a hard thing to do,so cool🤩
Why is training a bird that plucks different from any other bird?
@@MrJdubz100 because plucking is always anxiety/stress ridden so getting a bird that used to be terrified of people flying to people is a huge deal
Yes or medical related in some cases. I guess I’m still not seeing how thats different. My African Gray when I first adopted her 10 years ago was a big plucker. She isn’t any longer. My Catalina Macaw is an overpreener and barberer. I didn’t treat them any differently from my Senegal, a non plucking or barbering bird when it comes to training. There was no “training for pluckers”.
@@mischiefthedegenerateratto7464 So any ideas how to get my little plucker to tollerate my hand moving after she's stepped up? I've actually given up on step up, I got her to do it after many, many months of work, but the second I moved my hand with her on it, she totally freaked out & returned to refusing to step up with her second foot. I worked with her again, got her confident in 2 foot step up, kept doing it daily for about a month, then tried moving my hand slightly again & again total reversion & refusal, so yeh, I've just given up after persevering for SO long & not getting anywhere, but I really wish she would trust me enough that I could pick her up & move her around, or even have her sit on my shoulder. I know she'd like it if she'd do it, but she's just too freaked out from years of abuse to be willing to trust a human on anything like that, she wants to be in full control of her movements
@@mehere8038 I'm sorry I don't own birds only ferrets and cats, all I can suggest is maybe some safe paste based food so she learns to lick or something?
Omg I'm so happy!
After watching bird tricks, one day I came back to watch the same video Jamie watched, and I noticed the handling too. So when I saw the community post about the colab, I knew it was going to be touched upon. Cheyenne never fails to amaze me on how quickly she picks up on things, and Emily and Ed are great bird parents.
I can't wait to see more Cheyenne amidst the baby snakes and egg videos this year!
Thank you so much Dave, Jamie and Capri! For the amazing content.
I've been using some of these principles to also train my dog
Where did you get the chest sweater. I have 2 Green Cheeks that pluck down to the down feathers. And I wonder if that would work as each pluck their chest and then they pluck each others back/neck feathers.
We have tried everything under the sun including anxiety meds, $600 laser therapy, Pluck no more spray added to their water dish and on their feathers.
Our oldest is also getting mean and when out, she will fly to you and rub her head on your face and hand, but then out of nowhere she will attack me and bite sometimes drawing blood.
And if I grab her, she will chomp down on my hand.
@@JamKriCarEmm Emily had a fan hand make them for her, they sent her a huge box of them specifically made to fit her bird. :)
Why can I like this video just one time??
Love Snake Discovery, love your videos.
Together, absolutely amazing to watch!
Thanks
Cheyenne is amazing! She's such a fast learner. It brought tears of joy to my eyes seeing her making that first flight from the counter, and so precious to watch her confidence grow, so inspiring! 💛🦜💙
Omg YES!!! The collab we’ve all been waiting for!!!!
She looked SO content towards the end of the video sitting on Emily’s hand! Her reward pathways were LIGHTING UP hahaha, I love seeing that look on their faces and the accompanying body language. So satisfying ❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful! I'm so happy for Cheyenne!! Thank you everyone. : )
I watch Snake Discovery all the time. Love how your daughter is getting all into the video at the end LOL. You should post some zoo vids with the kiddo - I am sure she enjoyed it
We will definitely be publishing a video of Capri's adventures at Snake Discovery on BT Kids!
@@BirdTricks Sweet - I just saw their flip version of this video tonight LOL. I may need you to come help me with the most aggressive Harlequin macaw in the history of EVER! He hates EVERYONE including me... oh and my Cockatoo hates women... so I have biters LOL - Jamie would LOVE that!
Capri mimicking her dad near rhe end so cute
To nonbird people, considering it progress that an animal begins to take treats rather than ceases to take treats as part of their training seems a step backwards. We consider a dog to have advanced when he doesn't look for the treat but rather for the praise when the behavior is correct.
Dogs are very different from parrots. Parrots for the most part do not care about pleasing people, it is not in their nature. Their attitude is more of “whats in this for me?” And so we offer treats. Its harder to train a bird that is not motivated by treats but it is possible if it is motivated by praise or affection.
Yay my two favorite channels collab :D I am glad that you helped Cheyenne, I know that Ed and Emily are amazing bird parents but everyone needs opinion from people like you from time to time, and training bird that is plucked so much and not so confident must be harder.
I am sad that I can't bring Bruno to you, so you could meet him, but sadly I am from Europe so no way :/ But I am glad that I can ask you for your opinion through an e-mail. I am grateful for all the advice i've got from you, because even though I keep parrots for over 20 years now, I've learned so much with past 9 months with Bruno and watching your channel and few other channels. One most important thing, that changed how quick my quaker got used to me, apart from being hand fed, was the fact that you taught me that leaving new bird for few days alone to 'get used to new place' is stupid thing that results in bird being familiar with everything in the room except you. And of course I've learned few tricks how to remove pesticides from veggies and fruits - my biggest fear with giving grocery store food to my bird - and also you helped me to choose food for my parrot :D And yes, he now think that Hagen Harri pellets are treats and he accepts those as a reward, but Bruno is amazing, he accepts carrot/lettuce/pumpkin seed and other seeds/nuts as a reward, he also accepts voice as a reward, when I tell him 'good bird', he also, sometimes tell 'good bird' to himself when he do the trick.
Thank you once more and awesome collab!
Been subscribed to Snake Discovery for several years now (this channel as well)... it's a bit weird to see both on the same channel though. Very entertaining to watch Emily getting schooled instead of her audience.
Her little sweater is so precious!
MY TWO FAVORITE CZcamsRS HAVING AN AMAZING COLLAB? FINALLY!
Training is so wonderful when the owners are receptive to other opinions and change, makes an awesome difference 💜 Good job to the whole team!
I love Snake Discovery! And I also really like this video because while it's great to see you guys work with just everyday people, there's also a lot of really important stuff to learn seeing you work with someone who has some sort of zoology degree that we don't see with other families
My two favorite channels together?! Oh my gosh! This is amazing!
Haha, that first time on the counter she was trying to and you saw her thinking ‘am I going to land on my face or will it work?” Priceless to see her gain confidence and actually becoming a ‘trainable’ bird.
Two of my favourite channels and groups of people in the world working together....Oh my god my heart 💜
Yay! This video was the best you've ever made (okay, maybe not, but I love Snake Discovery!).
P.s. Every time Cheyenne successfully flew from the counter to Emily, I said in a very high pitched voice, "Cheyenne!"
I’ve always wanted this collab!!
Aww so happy to see you finally working with Cheyenne.
Capri is so funny at the end of the video when you are summing up. Cracked me up.
big fan of Snake Discovery I'm super excited to see if her plucking will calm down with change of food!
Collab of the century
Cheyenne is a very sweet bird and looks to adapt quickly which is even more awesome.
capri reminds me of my little girl x such empathetic energy
Who said you can’t teach an old bird new tricks? All of you are absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing! 😊💕🦜
My favourite collaboration. Emily & Jamie plus Cheyenne! ❤️🦜
I don’t even have a bird 😂 but have always loved watching Snake Discoveries channel! So I was happy to stumble across this video today & see Emily & Cheyenne featured in it! 🦜♥️
I read this “can we train a snake to fly?״
My Chako is 32 years old, and doesn’t transport by flying, his only flights off are when he’s spooked or over heightened. Doesn’t use flight intentionally.
Just after cleaning up his his diet to completely natural diet, healthy and balanced, got him to do his first intentional hop (he was so enthusiastic about getting weighed on our weighing platform), I am always happy to see older parrots learn to use their body intentionally and be more physically active, it seems like diet can be a major part of the challenge apparently.
Your daughter is so darn cute!! I wish you all the best 4 ever!!!!
So weird! I started following you guys like a couple of weeks or so ago per CZcams recommendation... But I've been following Snake Discovery for over a year now... It was such a pleasant surprise to see you guys there!! Loved the collab!! Please do more!!
Capri is so cute, demonstrating all the movements
Ahh can't believe that two of my fav channels are collaborating!!!🤯
It makes me so happy to see two of my favorite channels collabing!! Cheyenne did so well, and Emily and Ed are awesome as always.
The collab I was waiting for! Nice!
Yay! Happy you are helping them.
I've practically been waiting for this! I'm so excited!!
oh my goodness, Kapri gesturing along as dave talks
This collab was good for my soul lol
This is the collab that I've been waiting for!
Love this collab!! Dave is so patient and such a genius at getting things out of her. Awesome 👏🏽
AHHHHH!!! My two favourite CZcams channels together! I've been subscribed to both forever!!
YAS I LOVE CHEYENNE!!! I love that she is wearing her sweaters too!! This was the BEST colab!
Welcome to Minnesota! I’m excited to watch this bonus video!
Snake Discovery is awesome and You guys helped them get the confidence to fly that bird!
You guys are magic! Thank you so much for teaching her to fly for real! She's a channel favorite even if she's not a reptile and everyone cares so much about her. I hope your daughter had fun at the zoo!
Really appreciated Jamie mentioning breaking things down into smaller approximation which is the way it should be done
Wow!!! That was truly awesome!!!
I Just had this thought of this combo this morning watching snake discovery!
Great minds!
I've been waiting forever for this video! I love you guys and snake discovery! So happy to see you collating. Do you think with the switch with diet it may help with the plucking?
I love this! I've been watching both of you forever! This is the Collab I never knew I needed. ❤
Yay! Thank you!
I watched you on Snake Discovery and had to come here to let you know how happy I am to see my two favorite CZcamsrs together! AND on another note, I purchased a sprayer from you, for my two kittens. NO not to punish them, but they love getting misted. I bought a second one for my daughter's room so one is always available. AND they just love it. We say, "Spray" and they both come to us and squint their little eyes and get ready. Today was field day at my school, and I brought them to spray my students and cool them off. They were a big hit there too. So a bunch of thumbs up and a huge positive review on the spray bottles!
This is such an amazing collab!!!!
I just love Cheyenne, the fact that you were able to train her and even teach Emily and Ed is awesome!
She's a huge part of the family of Snake Discovery, thanks guys! 😊❤️
Ed looks like such a proud dad. I love it.
That shows ur system works
I came here for the high pitch voices at a different angle. 🤣🤣🤣
i LOVE this collab!! hopefully u guys do more together 🥰
I was a snake discovery fan and I saw the video on their channel. I’m not super into birds but I’m super super into exotic animal training!
So cool to see this collab!
This is so wonderful!!! Gives me hope for my U2!!!! 🥰
Came over from SD was awesome to see 😊👍
Totally off topic I know but your skin looks amazing omg ♥️
This was enjoyable to watch
Coming here from the Snake Discovery video. It was so cool to watch Cheyenne's progress over just a weekend! I've never had a pet bird, they just require too much for me to feel like it's a responsible option, but I love watching videos of them and seeing their antics and personalities.
On a slightly unrelated note, Emily is so tall! I remember her mentioning she's close to 6', but usually she's alone in the camera perspective of their videos, or sitting, so it never really hit until I saw the shot of all of you against the mural wall.
You did such a great job with Cheyenne! I never thought I would see her doing so much flying! I am still in awe over what you did with her!
What would you recommend for a Sr. Citizen Cocktail??? He hasn't been eating his treats lately and has some weird long stringy white feathers under his regular feathers. I know he is pretty old. I am not sure how old. He belongs to my husband and he is worried.
Great video! 💜
Cheyenne: what's really going on inside that walnut brain. Special post flight training interview from Snake Discovery spokesbird at 11. 📺 😂
It’s so funny they are like people-too much thinking about it leads to more hesitation and fear. I have found this is true with my tiny lovebird as well.
I had never heard of you guys before watchibg SD’s video. Waow Dave was able to spot Cheyenne’s intricacies in her temperament that triggered her to fly ! So subtle to the untrained eye, yet it seemed obvious to you. Great collab
This is awesome!
OMG I would love to see Jaimie hanging out with some of their snakes
lol
That is a wonderful adoreable parrot!
**Saw the collab on Snake Discovery’s channel and definitely had to check out your channel!! You guys are awesome!! Thank you for your knowledge!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Wow I love snake recovery I am so glad u did a colab oh cna u make a lil clip of capri doing gymnastic in ur next video😍
Such a cool video because I'm subscribed to both channels
Yeahhhh. Haha I’m at home clapping my hands. You guys are truly amazing at reading what the bird needs. Dave nailed it.
Good video sounds great pets great lnterview
Love both Chanel’s and shiann
as soon as i saw the title i was like omgggggg so excited
The ultimate crossover 😍😍
Frustration builds drive! Good work!
This was soo cool
When I saw the front picture in small of Cheyenne with the color strip crocheted sweater, I thought it was feathers and the name of the type of Macaw was a "Snake discovery". I had to watch that. It's like, unintentional click bait!
You guys are in my home state! Love the vid! I hope the diet change help this gorgeous bird grow back her feathers!
Having been plucked for that long her follicles are likely damaged permanently.
Here is a video where they talk about her over plucking. I believe she will unfortunately not grow her feathers back at this stage.

This is so weird, the reptile person and the bird person I follow together in the same room. Hopefully good things
I love snake discovery!!!!!!! They just posted a new video about you guys!!
14:45 reminds me of me learning a new gymnastics vault...😅😂
Love your videos ❤❤❤love from india
